When you talk about grinders, one name that constantly pops up is Florida's David Prociak, who is playing in today's tournament under the screen name "Twizzlers." A few days ago, Prociak finished in fourth place for $41,472 in Event #11: $500 No-Limit Hold'em Turbo Deepstack 6-Handed.

He has more than $1.2 million in lifetime earnings dating back to 2015, including a career-best $330,912 for finishing runner-up in the 2015 Rock 'N' Roll Poker Open $3,500 Main Event. The following year, he took down the 2016 WSOP Event #60: $1,500 Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better tournament for $156,546.

Toss in a couple of WSOPC gold ring wins, including a victory in the WSOPC Seminole Hard Rock Tampa Event #7: $1,125 Pot-Limit Omaha 8-Handed earlier this year for $51,400, and Prociak is clearly a forced to be reckoned with.

Prociak, who learned to play the game by watching it on TV, rented an AirBnB in order to grind the online series and was kind enough to send us a photo of him in action.

You can follow him on Twitter @DavidProciakPok.
